May 14, 2016 -- 4th Annual 2016 Hit-A-Thon
Thurmont Little League is having our 4th Annual Hit-A-Thon as the major fund raiser for the Spring Season on Saturday, May 14th. This is a great opportunity to let the players showcase their hitting skills and it will be a fun day for the whole family. Since we own and operate our facility through our Board of Directors, and receive limited financial assistance from outside the organization, every penny we raise from the Hit-A-Thon goes directly to improving the baseball experience for our players. We appreciate your support getting pledges and thank you!

The rules are as follows:

This is the perfect venue to show those baseball pictures they’ve been waiting to show friends. All online pledges are tax deductible.
